SAFETY DISTANCE TO MOBILE PHONE ANTENNAS
Member of Parliament, Mr. Erling Bager brought up the above
subject in  in a parliament discussion. He approached the
Minister of Environment, MS. Anna Lindh. He was concerned over
the enormous proliferation of mobile phone antennas.
Mr Bager described how in Old Town in Stockholm, on the Vaster
Langgata Street in an apartmentbuilding, one can reach out the
window and almost touch a mobile phone antenna. In another part
of Stockholm, Bredang, four mobile phone antennas have been
erected on top of an apartment building. The closest house to
these antennas is 25 meters (75 feet). On yet another house,
there is another antenna. A day care center is nearby.
Mr. Bager wants the government to introduce a safety distance
from mobile phone antennas. This might be a good idea.
In Gothenburg, on the Swedish wet coast, the Radisson SAS hotel
has several antennas and in particular two GSM antennas on each
side of a window on the top floor. One wonders of this is wise
or if the hotel guest or the people working in the hotel are
aware that they might be exposed when sitting  in seeming
safety inside, only a few feet away from the antennas outside.



Most people have no idea what these antennas look like or what
their purpose is. They do not have a chance to choose exposure
or not.  If there was a safety distance, this kind of hazardous
placement might have been avoided.      leif.sodergren-skandia.se
